Pray tell what number the "extra" will be?

Unfortunately, ewe bud is getting Penix back also.

Or, "NILitment"

Now that the Southern/Sewer California schools will both be leaving and UCLA will subsidize Cal (as they should). Since UCLA leaving affects the remaining Pac 12 and they aren't subsidizing the remaining 9 schools, U of O and some school north are now the torch bearers for the league . . . Time to tell the commish we DEMAND a much higher payout for post season berths in all sports, as in all expenses covered AND AT LEAST 1/2 of the rest of the payout. Otherwise, keep our own media rights.

NFL legend Jerry Rice had some words for the San Francisco 49ers’ coaching staff after Deebo Samuel left Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with an ankle injury. "Please stop running out skill player up the middle," he wrote.

It will be interesting to say the least. And yes, the moniker coach priME probably fits.

Maybe they're paying the buy in so they can say they only schedule FBS programs.

Think we can get Penix from ewe dub if Bo goes? He is the scariest thing coming back to the Pac.

Great work, thanks a bunch (as always)

Does he check this box . . . How soon does Louisville need a new HC?

I love this LA Times article. Looks like the Trojans and Riley now need air freshener in their bathrooms. Plaschke: A genius loses his mind, a star is hobbled and USC goes bust in unthinkable fashion WWW.MSN.COM Lincoln Riley deserves blame for not making adjustments when Utah surged early on, taking a conservative approach that dooms USC to a Pac-12 title loss.

I think Vegas is the worse. It comes during the end of the recruiting period, so you lose out on that precious time.

"But it is just a game". No truer words ever spoken. Thanks for a great inciteful article.

A new wrinkle and an interesting question poised by Matt Prehm (paraphrased) at 24/7 in regard to keeping under classmen with NFL potential . . . Could Oregon's NIL collectives put together good enough packages to (players with eligibility remain) that one or more decide to come back for another season?

Next coach up!

Good for him and good luck.

That is a big if . . . If Bo plays, If the transfer portal doesn't take too many players. If most of the pro-bound players don't opt out. (I personally don't have any problem with any player who opts out for their future.) This is the problem with lower tier bowl games these days. But on the bright side, it does give the back-ups valuable practice and game reps.

Can't blame you at all and I don't think you're spoiled, just fortunate. Those of us who have lived it, wish we hadn't. That is what makes this forum so informative, different generations, viewpoints and opinions.

I'm not sure whether I agree or disagree with that phrase. I guess it depends on what is the "standard"? 9 wins, that is a nice standard. Especially in a coach's first year. If 9 wins is the standard, then I'll gladly stick around for when we exceed it. The Pac 12 with 6 teams in the playoff poll, that's not the standard either. But when it is, a 9-win Holiday Bowl team might be the standard. Losing to ewe dub at home while being a double digit favorite or blowing a 3 TD lead with 20 minutes of football left, that is surely not the standard. We all would like to have the 'Bama standard, but I think that is a unicorn of a past non-NIL era.

Here, here, totally agree. Been a Duck since '68 We lost to (simplified): An undefeated national champion A ewe dub team with an NFL QB, due to our QB being injured. An OSU team, again mainly due to an injured QB and a dropped punt. We didn't coug it against a vastly inferior team as in prior years, although it will happen again someday. I wear my Duck gear a lot probably like a lot of you here on the forum. However, I also make sure I wear it after a loss to show support for the team I love. GO DUCKS!

Boy oh boy Charles, I hope your crystal ball doesn't turn into a pumpkinesk Cristobal.

It is probably an interesting dynamic how the coaches "don't communicate" with the 3rd parties involved with NIL deals. Do they use the wink system (x number of winks is how bad we would like the commit or number of zeros to put in a NIL deal), Morse code, semaphore, emojis, etc.?
